Tile roofs have been around for centuries. Like any roofing product, they were created to provide a barrier between the inside of a structure and the harsh outside elements. Roof tiles are made of local, natural and recyclable materials such as terracotta (or clay), slate and concrete.

All three of these materials offer lifelong durability and fireproofing. Concrete roof tiles offer additional benefits including: versatility in design and color, energy efficiency, greater protection against high winds, hail and freeze/thaw climates, and are less expensive than genuine clay or slate.
